Factors Influencing Central Lamina Cribrosa Depth: A Multicenter Study.

Central LD was deeper in African descent eyes and influenced least by age, axial length, and sex, but more by ASCO area, when measured relative to the ASCO and sclera.

Peripapillary Scleral Bowing Increases with Age and Is Inversely Associated with Peripapillary Choroidal Thickness in Healthy Eyes.

In non-highly myopic healthy eyes, outward peripapillary scleral bowing achieved substantial levels, was markedly increased with age, and was independently associated with decreased peripapillary choroidal thickness.

Precision of Optic Nerve Head and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Parameter Measurements by Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography.

For R&R, the COVs of measured parameters were by trend higher for glaucoma eyes compared with normal controls.

Can Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression be Predicted by Structural and Functional Measures?

Both measurement of RNFLT by OCT and Glaucoma probability score by CSLO are highly predictive of future visual field conversion and provide independent predictive information beyond optic disc assessment, central corneal thickness, and SAP pattern…

Predictive Factors for Visual Field Conversion: Comparison of Scanning Laser Polarimetry and Optical Coherence Tomography.

Both GDx-VCC and SD-OCT demonstrate comparable results in predicting future visual field conversion if taking typical scans for GDx-VCC.

Protruded retinal layers within the optic nerve head neuroretinal rim.

Protruded retinal layers are a component of MRW measurements in most normal subjects, occurring in almost 12% of all measurement points analysed.

Pattern electroretinogram, blue-yellow visual evoked potentials and the risk of developing visual field defects in glaucoma suspects: a longitudinal "survival" analysis with a very long follow-up.

PERG helps to estimate glaucoma suspects' risk for visual field defects.

Comparison of Bruch's Membrane Opening Minimum Rim Width and Peripapillary Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Early Glaucoma Assessment.

Bruch's membrane opening-MRW and RNFLT are comparably useful parameters for discrimination of preperimetric and perimetric glaucomatous eyes and show potential to assist each other in glaucoma diagnosis. (www.ClinicalTrials.gov number, NTC00494923; Erlangen Glaucoma Registry.).

Comparison of frequency doubling and flicker defined form perimetry in early glaucoma.

FDF and FDT stimulations can be used to detect patients with early glaucoma. Combined consideration of RNFL thickness and results from one of these perimetric tests can increase the total number of detected patients.

Confocal Laser Scanning Tomography to Predict Visual Field Conversion in Patients With Ocular Hypertension and Early Glaucoma.

Confocal scanning laser tomography is a useful imaging modality to predict future visual field conversion.

The Effect of Long-term Antiglaucomatous Drug Administration on Central Corneal Thickness.

We recommend regular measurements before and during therapy with prostaglandin monotherapy and a combined therapy with prostaglandins, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, and β-blockers.

Predicted and measured retinal nerve fiber layer thickness from time-domain optical coherence tomography compared with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography.

These data suggest that the prediction of mean pRNFLT values by equations derived from TD-OCT and SD-OCT can be conducted with high levels of agreement.

Bruch's Membrane Opening Minimum Rim Width and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in a Normal White Population: A Multicenter Study.

There was significant age-related loss of BMO-MRW in healthy subjects and notable differences between BMO-MRW and RNFLT in their relationship with age and between each other.

Flicker-defined form perimetry in glaucoma patients.

The FDF stimulus was able to detect beginning glaucoma damage. Patients with SAP-MD values exceeding 5 dB should be monitored with conventional perimetry because of its larger dynamic range.

Short-term fluctuation of intraocular pressure is higher in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome despite similar mean intraocular pressure: a retrospective case-control study.

The higher levels of short-term fluctuation in IOP appear to be an independent feature of PEX and not merely a secondary effect of the higher mean IOP.
